Chapter 909: The Journalist Who Interviewed Gu Mang Went to See Someone

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Gu Mang did not need to help with the matters at Academic Center Hall anymore. She left with Jiangsui and the rest.

Once they got into the car, Jiangsui said, “Sister Mang, regarding that journalist you asked me to tail, she went to meet someone named Lu Jie from the medical association. He is a department head. Do you want me to look up his information?”

When Gu Mang heard this name, she looked down and said after two seconds of silence, “No need, he works under Lu Chengzhou.”

“He works for my brother-in-law?” Gu Si turned around. “Then why is he helping us?”

Lu Chengzhou had been hypnotized by his sister. If Lu Jie had managed to climb up to the position he had now, he was definitely not a person that could be sent out easily.

Lu Chengzhou asked a department head to settle this trivial matter? Wasn’t he afraid of being exposed?

Gu Mang pondered for a moment.. “It’s probably Madam Ye.”

Other than Lu Chengzhou, Madam Ye was probably the only other person who could ask Lu Jie to do something. Bai Sui, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, glanced at the rearview mirror.

Gu Mang was expressionless and calm when she spoke.

…

At the Gu family’s manor.

Elder Gu hung up the phone and walked towards Old Master Gu. “Master Xian has been released. He can remove the handcuffs and ankle cuffs now, but he still needs to wear an electronic tracker.”

Old Master Gu stopped practicing calligraphy. After a few moments of silence, he beamed.

“We exchanged the minor injury Gu Mang suffered for Gu Xian’s freedom. Not a bad trade.” Using the tip of the brush, the Old Master created an outline of a sun totem.

Ever since Leng Xuan had visited the supermax prison to ask Gu Xian for help to deal with Gu Mang, Gu Xian’s power had started to increase.

Elder Gu said, “How can Master Xian be so sure that Leng Xuan won’t do anything to the Young Lady?”

Old Master Gu was in a good mood. “If something happens to Gu Mang, Huo Zhi will not let Leng Xuan off the hook. Gu Xian can go free. If nothing happens to Gu Xian, he will not let Leng Xuan off the hook. Gu Xian will still be able to go free.”

It was a win-win situation for Gu Xian. It was worth sacrificing Gu Mang in exchange for Gu Xian, who was only loyal to the Gu family. Furthermore, there was still Gu Si.

In Old Master Gu’s eyes, kinship and blood ties were simply tools to achieve power.

Elder Gu nodded. “But the Elders’ Association will only allow Master Xian to be a temporary substitute. After 15 days, once the Young Lady passes the test, she would become the next head of Base 102. If she doesn’t pass the test, the Young Lady will become Leng Xuan’s lab rat.”

“15 days?” Old Master Gu mulled over the time frame. Gu Mang likely could not recover fully by within that time. He turned and asked, “Gu Mang agreed?”

Elder Gu answered, “No news yet.”

…

Gu Mang returned to the villa.

Huo Zhi and the Head Elder were waiting in the hall.

When Gu Si saw them, his gaze filled with blatant disdain. “What are you guys doing here again?”

The Head Elder got up. With his hands behind his back, he smiled politely. “Young Lady has taken first in the individual category. We are here to discuss the Base 102 assessment.”

Gu Mang walked over to the sofa to sit down, remaining silent. Gu Si sat beside Gu Mang.

The subordinates who had nothing to do with this matter left the four alone. The server robot came over to pour tea for everyone.

The Head Elder said, “Young Lady, the assessment system will open up in 15 days.”

He sounded like he was simply informing her of procedure.

Hearing this, Gu Si frowned. “What do you mean by that? My sister is suffering from a bone fracture! Show me how you can heal a bone fracture in 15 days!”

Nestled into the sofa, Gu Mang drank tea expressionlessly.

Huo Zhi looked at the girl. “We should set aside the assessment for now. You should take your time to recuperate.”

Gu Mang remained silent.

Gu Si asked coldly with a straight face, “What if my sister doesn’t turn up for the assessment?”

The Head Elder smiled. “Young Lady can take things slow. She can go to the Jijing Special Institute and receive training from the Elders’ Association. Taking over Base 102 will be delayed indefinitely.”

Gu Si pursed his lips. They were forcing his sister to go through the assessment in 15 days’ time.
